KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 5: Innovative public policies to curb corrupt practices need to be formulated to address Malaysia’s declining position in the Corruption Perceptions Index 2020 (CPI).
Datuk Seri Akhbar Satar, who holds the professorial chair at Institute of Crime and Criminology, HELP University, said the decline in terms of ratings clearly reflects the weakness of political will and anti-corruption efforts to address this problem.
“High-profile corruption cases and economic crimes that include rampant smuggling activities also worsen the perception that there is a high level of corruption in the public sector in the country,“ he said in a statement here today.

Could kind, well-liked leaders be putting their company at greater risk of financial fraud than very aggressive leaders?
Groundbreaking new international research from the University of Waikato suggests that may be the case.
The study, ‘Why financial executives do bad things’ is co-authored by professors of accounting Jake Rose and Ania Rose. It was recently published in the
Journal of Business Ethics, which ranks in the
Financial Times’ Top 50 journals.
The research challenges the accepted wisdom about why financial executives decide to commit fraud, how the tone set by top management can influence their behavior, and whether wrongdoing typically escalates over time, from harmless to serious acts.
